This list includes the all-time and the active consecutive NFL playoff appearances. Aside from the NFL playoff appearance streaks, this list also includes Championship Game appearance streaks and the NFL championships win streak. Streaks from the AFL are also included.

The Green Bay Packers[1] hold the longest consecutive NFL title streak with three consecutive crowns, which they accomplished on two separate occasions: once in the 1920s, before postseason games were introduced, and once in the 1960s, which included winning seven playoff games and the first two Super Bowls.

The New England Patriots[2] hold the record for most consecutive playoff games won, with ten postseason wins in a row from 2001–2005 including three Super Bowl wins. The Patriots also hold the longest playoff appearance streak, with 11 consecutive appearances from 2009 to 2019. The second-longest such streak is the Kansas City Chiefs' active streak of 10 consecutive appearances from the 2015 season to the present.
